Clarets Plan One More Step To Season

The Clarets are planning one more work-out before they launch their season in the Carabao Cup.

Burnley again fielded two teams in simultaneous friendlies at the Barnfield Training Centre on Saturday, beating Scottish outfit Hearts 4-1 and League Two side Mansfield Town 4-2.

That followed a mid-week draw against Preston and two training-ground games a week ago as the Clarets build up to the new campaign.

And with no Premier League fixture on the opening day, Sean Dyche will use one further behind-closed-doors game to help with preparations for the league programme and a League Cup second-round tie which will kick-off the Clarets’ season on 15/16 September.
